hi mari,

i'm just confirmed 5wks preggers and live in brooklyn. however, my OB is in nassau. He's in bethpage and i know you wanted a woman. i don't know if you need a high risk doctor but there's a great group of docs affiliated with winthrop hospital in mineola, and the one all of my friends (we're Peds ICU RNs @ Winthrop) and one of the docs i work with is Dr. Sicurenza ane another of her partners is a Dr. Chavez, whom i've heard good things about. unfortunately my coworkers and i all go to male OBs...

Silverblue78 you work at Winthrop? Are you delivering there or closer to Brooklyn? How's winthrop?

Mari-I go to an ob in garden city. But there are 2 men and 2 women. I used to go to an all women office. Dr. King and Dr. Blinderman but they are associated with 3 hospitals and you won know where you're going until you are in labor. This being our first, we wanted to deliver at Winthrop.

Hi loveandjoy,

sorry it took so long to get back to you, i was actually at work this past wkend and off and on the last couple of days. My OB is Dr. Peyman Zandieh of Bethpage and he only delivers in Winthrop, so i'll be going there. I've heard nothing but good things about our New Life Center (L&D dept). the average age on my floor is about 32 so just about everyone has delivered at winthrop and all have been quite happy.

Thanks silverblue78. I'll be delivering at Winthrop. I can't wait to go for the tour and finally see everything. It seems as tho everyone there is so nice and that others who have delivered there are super happy too.

Doctor Sarah Schwartz is amazing! She in West Islip, 500 Montauk Hwy. She's an amazing doctor. I had a baby 4 months ago and I had the best prenatal care. She was very caring and is willing to do anything to help you out. Unfortunately she didn't deliver me because she was away that day but the doctor that covers for her (God forbid she isn't available) is also amazing. She's associated with Southside hospital and Good Sam. She mostly delivers at Good Sam but my boyfriend works at Southside and they are amazing as well. My best friend also had a baby at South side 2 months before me and she's just as pleased. HTH

Congrats all! I'm pregnant with my first after a long bumpy road filled with countless doctor visits, medications, procedures, depression, anger.. You name it! Silver I also work at winthrop and will be delivering there as well! No one on my floor knows yet since I'm only about 5wks 4 days...I'm very familiar with all our high risk doctors since I also work in maternal child...they are all terrific! I myself go to dr dilena who is fabulous! Have u told anyone on your floor yet?

huh...how about that?

I've gone through a pretty long road myself. this is my 2nd pregnancy and (i hope) the one i'll carry all the way through. My manager and assis managers know and a few others as well. it's quietly getting out there b/c the news got out way too fast the last time due to certain wagging toungues and everyone knows how i feel about that. as a result the few who know are keeping it to themselves and using it to help out with pt assignments where possible.

Right? What a small world! I only told 2 of my close friends on the floor..I wanna wait til my first sono on Wednesday before I decide who else going to tell... I work on potter 2...but shhh don't tell anyone! Lol u can imagine how much of a nervous wreck I working on a high risk antepartum unit! I always see the worst case scenerios so it's a little tough for me to be very excited yet..must be tough for u too!
